Infectious

before the story starts

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION. IT IS NOT NECESSARY THAT YOU MEMORIZE IT ALL, BUT IT WILL GIVE YOU A GOOD IDEA OF THE READER'S QUIRK. EVERYTHING GIVEN ABOUT THE READER IS EVERYTHING THAT THE PUBLIC KNOWS.

Reader's Information:

Quirk: Virus

     Type: Emitter

     Basic Information: This quirk allows the user to transmit a virus of their choosing to anyone, either by physical contact, contact of bodily fluids on open wounds, or releasing it into the air to infect everyone who breathes it in. The user will only be able to transmit viruses they know the shape of, and they can only transmit viruses the way they would be naturally spread. The user can remove the virus cells that they have transmitted to other people through physical contact, but only viruses they transmitted and not external ones. However, they can detect viruses in other people's bodies. The user can remove external viruses from themselves and pass it onto someone else, and the newly infected can't pass it on. Any harm caused by a virus transmitted from the quirk user will be reversed once it is removed.

     Drawbacks: The user may start suffering from some of the effects of the viruses they transmit if there is prolonged usage.

     Strengths: It can affect enemy's movements and physical health in an endurance battle. Can also inflict some degree of internal damage.

     Weaknesses: Although the time needed for the virus to start working is greatly sped up, it still needs some time to incubate in an opponent's body. Also, the quirk is not combatant, so the user has to rely on personal fighting skills.

     Other notes: If not removed in time, the quirk can be fatal if the virus transmitted was lethal.

The Infectious Hero: Pathogen:

Tends to work at night. She tells the media it's because there are less people to risk infecting if she chooses to use an airborne illness (which she avoids, but it's a just in case scenario)Her hero costume is a black tank top and wine red pants that are tucked into black combat boots with thick soles.She carries several gas masks to give to people if she is fighting alongside another hero or if there are civilians in the area. She also carries a knife in each boot and on each hip (below her pants), mostly for the sake of blood-borne pathogens. She only uses them to fight if her opponent outmatches her in physical strength.Originally, her hero name was "Patient Zero," which she changed (to Pathogen) three years ago. She tells the media it was to seem less scary to civilians when she stopped hiding from the media. Pathogen is one of the top female heroes (about #6 in terms of only female heroes), but because there are so few female heroes, she much lower down when you factor in male heroes (#32 overall). She started as an underground hero. She went mainstream three years ago after moving to Japan, and changing her name and costume. She told the media it was because young girls needed more female role models in the hero industry. Her stats are: Power: 3/5- C
Speed: 4/5- B
Technique: 5/5- A
Intelligence: 3/5- C
Cooperativeness: 4/5- B

[surname] [name], the person behind the hero:

Not much is known about her personal life, as she doesn't tell the media much. Common information includes: (1) She was born in America. (2) She served some time in the military in America. (3) She moved to Japan three years ago (at the same time she changed her name and costume, and stepped into the media's spotlight).

Information about the story:

The reader is twenty eight years old, two years younger than Aizawa. The story will follow the manga. There may be added or removed sections, but everything should follow the same track. I will be using it for dialogue, too. Since our main character is not our dearest Midoriya, there will be nothing but glances at Midoriya's and All Might's relationship. The story's plot should start ~chapter seven of the manga.
